Chocolate & Coconut Pumpkin Brownies
It’s been a while since I shared a brownie recipe hasn’t it? Well, it’s time to change that for sure. I was scrolling through some of my really old recipes the other day and realizing that I’ve never made a completely vegan brownie. I’ve tried tons of variations but I don’t think I’ve ever taken on the challenge of creating a good one before. For these I used some pumpkin for texture and to help keep them on the healthier side of things. I know, you’re probably like “How could you defile a perfectly good browine with veggies!” :O Honestly though, these might surprise you by how good they are without a ton…

Walnut Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread (V+GF)+ Video
Sup, my friends? So I’ve gotta say, after a few weeks of traveling and being on the go so much it’s been really strange to try to get back to sharing recipes again. It’s kind of hard to explain but, regardless, I’m really happy to be back in the kitchen. I’ve been really in the mood for simple classics recently. I’ve also been really trying to come up with more balanced treats to share because I know personally I always feel better when I’m eating something that’s both nutritious AND delicious and I’m guessing you do too. On another note, I’ve been messing around with video a lot more since going to…

Indian Yellow Masala Chickpea Curry (Vegan+GF)
This is so exciting! You’re probably like “Curry isn’t THAT exciting, chill.” Well, I am excited about this recipe but what I’m talking about its being excited because I’m just hours from leaving for my next trip. I’ll be headed to Victoria B.C. in a matter of hours. I can’t wait! But anyway, I’ve got recipe to share and because I’m in a little bit of a hurry I thought I’d keep this post fairly short. I know I’ve probably told you this along with every curry recipe I’ve ever shared, but it’s not my family’s thing. Which is a shame because I adore any kind of curry. Well, that’s the beauty of…

The Easiest Creme Brulee Ever (Vegan+GF)
Remember when I told you about those cute little creme brulee dishes I got? Well……… I finally managed to create a recipe to use them for and I’m pretty excited to share it because it’s so simple. Slight confession here, this is yet another first for me. I’ve always been a little intimidated to try it at home because it seemed too fancy and complicated for any of the humble little kitchens I’ve cooked in over the past few years. Sure, the traditional method of stirring the custard slowly over the stove can be only too easy to mess up, but not with this recipe. I’m pretty sure I’ve broken some culinary laws…

No-Bake Raw Vegan Snickers Bars
So let’s talk about legendary recipes. I’d say most families have them. Whether it’s grandma’s famous pie recipe passed down from generation to generation, dad’s special lasagna, or your uncle’s secret sauce recipe. It’s funny how the really good ones have a way of sticking around. Well, after spending a few years now constantly trying new recipes and coming up with different combinations, I’d like to think I’ve created a few of those type. The ones that will be repeated over and over because they’re just that good. Of course, I’d be the first to admit that not all my recipe testing has been 5-star-restaurant worthy. There have definitely been some epic…

Goji Berry Banana Chia Breakfast Jars (Vegan+GF)
So we finally had an almost sunny day yesterday and I’m so hopeful that it means all the Spring feels are finally going to start soon. Honestly, can we just get a little sunshine around here??? Well the weather is making me really miss the flowers. That was actually one of my favorite things about the house we lived in in Chile, the backyard had so many varieties of flowers that bloomed all through the spring and summer season. It probably got me a little to be spoiled to using them in my food photography and even sometimes in recipes. Did you know most flowers are edible? I know the area I…

Fluffy Lemon Pancakes + Sweet Cashew Butter
So I was thinking, it’s been a while since the last time I shared a pancake recipe, hasn’t it? Honestly, it’s a little hard to keep track sometimes when I share so many recipes, but I can’t imagine it ever being a bad time for them, so I think pancakes are on the menu today! Some of my family like the thinner pancakes but most of them like the thickest fluffiest kind and I personally think those are the best texture. The hint of lemon is just the thing to make these some seriously memorable pancakes and then, of course, I had to make some sweet cashew butter for good measure to put…
